Folks Of Interest Dad passed away

What a beautiful way to honor your father and what he loved. I'm sure he appreciates it. Prayers are with you and your family.

 

I lost my father in '77. He promised to start going to car shows when he retired and never got the chance. Be thankful for the time you had with him.

 

Sorry to hear about your dad but it looks like he has a fine final ride.

Dad passed away 6 years ago and his ashes are in the wall at Tahoma National cemetery.

One of my good friends and sailing mentors passed away last year and we gave him a loud send off at Port Townsend last August.

We had a dab of his ashes in each of thirteen cannons per his daughters wishes and we fired them off at high noon.

My Dad's 4th anniversary of his death was June 4th. He was a wild and crazy car guy too. All us kids, (12) inherited that gift. Prayers and condolences to you the fam. Now Go burn some rubber, your Pop will get it.

My prayers are with you brother. I think that is an amazing idea for an urn.

 

I am terribly sorry for your unexpected loss; may your father's soul rest in peace. I think you made a good choice with the woody wagon urn and the folks at the funeral that did not understand must not have known about your dad's passion for classics. Although I do not know you or your father, I think it was a very honorable tribute.

 

Sorry for your loss.

 

Thanks for all the kind words!

 

Prayers and condolences for you and your family.

 

leadsled,

I lost my Dad in March so I know what you are going through brother. Hang in there. You and your family are in my prayers.

I lost mine in '71. Before that it was go karts and motorcycles and midgets and great times. There is a special place in heaven for hot rod dads. You are a better person for having known him.

 

Condolences to you, your family and friends. Heck of a way to keep his memory alive and when someone ask they will leave knowing what the man was about....Cars and the Family that loved him dearly.

 

Sorry to hear about your loss,My condolences to your family.

 

sorry to hear about your loss

 

May God bless.

 

My hotroddin' dad passed away unexpectadly 3 days after Christmas this past year.
Terrible to hear of your loss. May he rest in peace. Keep puttin the rubber to the road for him. And the woody sounds like a keen idea. RIP

 

I can't add anything to this other than to offer my sincerest condolences to you and your family. Lost my father in '78,and not long prior to that,we had almost done a car together. I had found(in '76) a '66 Belvedere II Hemi car in the northern Ohio area;he wanted to do a '55 Buick(like one he had owned before) and neither came to fruition. Glad you had the love of kool cars to share.

 

My condolences - sounds like a cool sendoff for a cool guy from a cool family.

so sorry for your loss

 

I've been there too........ always a tough deal. As for the explaining, my Dad wanted to go out in a cardboard box. I'm serious !! Got the next best thing....... a shoe box type thing from the mortuary guy, who was not happy. Cost of the box $24.00 The smile on my Dads face up there in hot rod heaven....... well you know !!!

Good job Son !! RIP

 

Sorry to hear about your loss, Your Pops is in Hotrod heaven watchin over you. R.I.P GodSpeed

 

My condolences on the loss of your Dad. My Dad passed in '89. He wasn't much of a car guy, but I remember him asking me if he could bet some money on my friend's 406 Ford in an up-coming street race.
Although I didn't realize it at the time,I guess he was always listening.
